I read this headline as tongue-in-cheek given he’s better known for the work you mentioned. Gave me a chuckle.

Also worth checking out: Mini Motorways, its successor, on Apple Arcade.

I agree that the motivations aren’t good (and I’m also critical of many of the things that big tech companies are doing to pander to MAGA) but it’s still a functional improvement in my opinion. I just see the decision as a “even a broken clock is right twice a day” sort of scenario.

Unpopular opinion maybe, but I’m ok with this. It’s less clutter if all you want is to see public holidays, and it’s easy enough to install calendars that show other events.

That’s aloha money

Homeless kids deserve childhoods too, but can’t help thinking there must be higher priority items than sending them to Disney. A tragedy of this story is maybe those grants wouldn’t have been diverted and could have been stretched further had they been spent on more useful things.

Ah, shame. Is it still worth a shot for someone who’s coming in fresh? I haven’t played any of the games in this series but to enjoy a good shooter.

When people riot over pensions or living conditions it’s because it affects them directly. Here it’s just squabbling over who gets to sit in the PM’s chair. Not surprising nobody wants to riot over which unlikable politician gets a promotion.

Crash mode was sort of like Angry Birds but with exploding cars and 10x the production value. You’d get score multipliers for causing the most damage possible.

This is my number one gaming wish. The old school burnout games were great! Couldn’t get into Paradise and all the driving around in between races.

Haven’t played it, but wasn’t there a Borderlands 3 a few years ago?

An ex-X-ecutive now.

I’m not a mod but am pretty sure this is opinion, not news. Therefore not allowed in this sub.

In fairness, it’s kind of a freaky concept. Real meat, yet no animal was killed to provide it. Doesn’t sound like it should be possible. I can’t wait to try it.

I’m inclined to agree, at least initially. I suspect it’ll depend on how much demand and competition there is in the field once it’s democratized. The other consideration is extraneous factors (e.g. soaring price of meat due to climate change) that could make lab-grown the cheapest/best option eventually.

Lab-grown meat.

“In 2013, the world’s first cultivated meat burger was served at a news conference in London. It allegedly cost $330,000 to make. That figure has plummeted in the almost-decade since, but cell-grown proteins are yet to clock in anywhere close to the same price as conventional meats.” (Source: https://www.bonappetit.com/story/lab-grown-meat)

The goal is to get the price down to a level the average supermarket shopper can afford, and if the science is successful it has the potential to revolutionize the food chain.

So basically like my dad but with 24 more jokes.

While I agree with your second point, I think the article is arguing that healthcare access will be made harder for indigenous people because they’re more likely to speak English or Inuktitut than other parts of the population. Even though Inuktitut is not available in most cases, a multilingual health care system makes it more accessible.
